GERMANY OUT
OF LEAGUE, TO
STAY NEUTRAL
(Continued from pane t)
tlon, olid at 11:30 a. m. today ac
cording to the League view.
Germany's Versailles treaty army
has become one of 600,000 men. lis
air force forbidden entirely has
become a powerful weapon. Its navy
Is becoming a potent force, includ
ing 12 submarines in operation and
nine under construction. The treaty
forbade Germany submarines.
All that has happened since Ger
many's resignation. -
Today with Europe in a grave cri
sis Germany is remote from it. Pub
lic opinion throughout the country
shows gratification at the country's
delivery from "the fetters of Ge
neva." The League has received no sym
pathy from Germans in its trou
bles; on the contrary Germans con
sider that the cause of peace may
ultimately be served if the League
falls to solve the Italian-Ethiopian
crisis, because then the powers will
be forced to admit the necessity
for a new departure and the aban
donment of present League princi
ples. These principles Germans feel
to be linked with the Versailles
treaty.
No willingness Is apparent in Ger
many to participate in any action
decided by the League. The utmost
reserve is maintained. Germany
Intends to be neutral.
On the one hand, It is not be
lieved that German will openly side
with Italy or supply her with arms.
Friendship . with Great Britain is
much valued in political quarters
and this fact forbids outright sup
port for the Italian cause.
On the other hand Germany
seems to have no intention to re
strict her business dealings wilh
Italy, one of her best customers. An
increase of German exports to
Italy is envisaged. Italy's great dif
ficulty in obtaining credits may
limit this increase.

that the state meet the entire sum,
relieving counties.
Senator Bynon also dropped two
other bills in the hopper. One would
empower the municipal dock com
mission of Portland and the Port
land city to exercise imminent do
main to obtain property outside their
limits for the purpose of develop
ment in connection with use of
power from the Bonneville dam pro
jects The bill would aso authorize
loans from the federal government
to be pledged by the property and
revenue therefrom.
The other proposal would amend
the state income tax law to permit
corporations contributing to the
Portland community chest to make
a deduction up to five percent of
their income to cover the amount
contributed. Bynon explained the
federal government permitted that
deduction while the state law gave
no exemption.
MOTHER AND BABE
SHOT IN KENTUCKY
Louisville, Ky Oct. 21 () Har
din county officers were hunting to
day a man listed as John Coffman,
40, for questioning in connection
with the fatal shooting of Mrs. An
na Smallwood Keith, 20, and her 11
months old son, Charles.
The mother and child died today
at a hospital here from wounds suf
fered in a blast of shotgun fire at
their home in Elizabeth town. Offic
ers said the woman, with her baby
in her arms, essayed the role of
peace maker by stepping between
her husband and another man who
had gone to her home allegedly to
"settle" a quarrel.
The husband. Haroid Keith, was
quoted by Chief Deputy Sheriff Wei
lcr Hodges as saying his wife told
the man to go away but that instead
he started shooting.

trained, modern -equipped imperial
guards to Dessye today.
Grazlana's forces, in their ad
vance, captured the rich oases in
the Sclaveli desert region in the
south of Ogaden province, an Ital
ian military communique said.
The fortress of Dagnerrei. at one
of these oases, was stcrmed ami
occupied by the Italians.
In their advance, the Italians pro
ceeded along the Webbe Shibele
river, which disappears in the coast
al swamps of Italian Somallland
before it reaches the sea.
The Shibele rises Into the plateau
regions of southwest Ethiopia, flow
ing swiftly through deep gorges. But
the Italian troops would leave the
river in their northward swing
toward Harar before reaching the
plateau region.
Reports to the Italian headquart
ers in the northern sector said
Halle Selassie was ready to sue for
peace.
There was no confirmation of this
rumor. The Italian plan of cam
paign into the interior is already
mapped and field officers said the
report would not alter these plans.
For every indication, the Italian
plan is this:
To drive from the north and south
toward Harar; occupy virtually all
the eastern half of Haile Selassie's
empire and thus link the two Ital
ian east African possessions, Eri
trea on the north and Somaliland
on the south.
As the Italian armies were mass
ed between Aduwa and Adigrat, in
northern Tigre province, for the
"big push" southward into the Ul
terior, arb Ethiopian communique,
issued at its legation in London,
warned Italy against the "ghastly
methods" of poison gas and dum
dum bullets.
The legation said it had impartial
substantiation of Italy's use of "un
fair and ultra-civilized methods of
warfare." '
"We take the opportunity," the
communique said, "hereby, to warn
the Italian forces that if they con
tinue to use such ghastly methods
against simple , unarmed peoples
that, notwithstanding the order oi
his majesty. Emperor Haile Selas
sie, I, it will not be possible to re
strain the wilder section of the Eth
iopian army from retaliating In
some similar method on Italian sol
diers who may happen to fall into
their hands."
The white race, the statement
said, "will be intensely hated by all
peoples of Africa and, we think, of
Asia also, for years to come."
The Ethiopian minister of war,
Ras Mulugheta, left for the north
ern front in Tigre province, In the
neighborhood of Makale. '
The report of the Italian victory
came here by airplane. After the
battle, a pilot flew the length of
Ethiopia to bring the report t-i
headquarters.
He said there was hard fighting
over difficult grounds. He described
the Dagnerrei fortress as located
high on a cliff with a sheer drop
from its battlements of 250 feel.
Various parts of the redoubts were
protected by iron spikes.
He said two columns of battalions
charged up the two sides, that the
fighting was slow, but that the vic
tory was overwhelming.
Burdodi, which were merely re
ported, as "occupied,", also was taken
by assault and was burned as the
defending force fled.

BRITISH APPLY
NEUTRALITY LAW
AGAINST ITALY
(Continued from page 1)
already been applied, in one case,
that of the Italian steamer Sureum
Corda, which was ordered by the
Kenya government to sail from
Mombasa within 24 hours after It
arrived Friday night.
Sir Eric Drummond, the British
ambassador to Rome, was under
stood to have called on Premier
Mussolini to inform him of the neu
trality decision.
These sources revealed the Bri
tish government had decided Great
Britain must act to observe the rules
of neutrality even though no state
of war has been declared between
Italy and Ethiopia.
Authorities said the Hague con
vention will be applied in "friendly"
fashion against Italy and that thus
far it applies only to Africa and
to such Italian vessels as are related
in some such definite form as aux
iliary to warlike operations.
No commercial shipping outside
the theater of war, It was stated, will
be affected. ,
Authoritative quarters in London
indicated the proposals for peace in
east Africa were crystalizing after
diplomatic conversations in Rome,
Paris and London.
It was emphasized, however, such
proposals were in the very earliest
stages and It would be erroneous to
say that anything definite had de
veloped, or to say great optimism
prevailed.
London circles said any east Afri
can peace plan must be wholly ac
ceptable both to Emperor Halle
Selassie and to the League of Na
tions. Diplomats were in something of
a quandary about this: How were
they going to devise a peace plan
acceptable under the covenant of
the league, after the league plainly
outlawed Mussolini for resorting to
war in Ethiopia in disregard of tils
covenants under the league?
As for the tense situation that
prevailed between Italy and Eng
land, it was felt in London this
crisis had been merely suspended
and not solved.
Mussolini, it was understood, con
ferred with Sir Eric Drummond,
the British ambassador, again over
the week-end, and gave him assur-
rance Italy had no design on Brit
ish interests, In east Africa o:
elsewhere.
The opening of the British par
liament tomorrow, with its certain
debate on the international situa
tion, was uppermost in the thoughts
of diplomats today.
They looked to Sir Samuel Hoare,
the foreign secretary, for complete
analysis of the British position and
felt it likely Sir Samuel might dwell,
at least briefly, on the possibilities
for peace.

Hawaii's Death Rate
Reaches Record Low
Honolulu (LP) Hawaii's death rate
for the fiscal year ended June 30
decreased to 8.42 per thousand pop
ulation, the lowest in the territory's
history, according to a report of Dr.
Frederick E. Trotter, president of
the board of health.
Deaths totaled 3,236 during the
fiscal year, 1934-35, a decrease of
443, or 12 per cent. Infant mortal
ity dropped 18 per cent from the
previous year.
Trotter attributed the decreased
death rates to vastly i m p r o v e d

SPUR TO BUYING
HIT BY DOUGLAS
Boston (LP) Efforts to spur con
sumer buying at the sacrifice of
savings is characterized at "not only
unsound but futile" by Lewis Doug
las, former director of the budget,
writing on the depression and the
problem of reemployment in the
current Atlantic Monthly.
"It is clear that increased pur
chases of consumer goods cannot
revive the capital-goods industries
in which the bulk of unemployment
exists," Douglas contends.
Asserting that the "spend-your
way-out theory," now favored by
the administration, is only sugerfi-
cially plausible. Douglas says that
it fails to recognize that the great
majority of unemployed are from
industries which make products that
the individual consumer does not
buy. and that savings do not repre
sent sterile, locked-up funds, but
funds which go into circulation
through investment.
"During the depression there has
been a relatively constant consump
tion of such goods as wheat, ubtter
flour, silks, velvets, popular-priced
dresses, infants' wear, cigarettes and
gasoline," Douglas writes. "Whereas
the consumption of capital-goods,
such as machinery, and building
materials, has declined enormously.
Employment in industries making
goods for individual consumption
has declined only 16 per cent
agaist a SO per cent decline in the
capital-goods industries.
"An overnight increase in the use
of consumer goods to an all-time
peak probably would not reemploy
even 25 per cent of the workers now
idle in the capital goods industries.
Water Pipes May be
Used for Jail Bars
Boston (LP) If U. S. Marshal John
Murphy's and Deputy U. S. Mar
shal John Hall's invention were in
stalled, water pipes instead of the
regular iron bars would be used to
construct prison cells.
They have a system of prevent
ing prison breaks in which, by at
tempting to saw through a bar, the
prisoner would release an automatic
siren alarm or a floor of water. The
break In the pipe would lower the
pressure of water, automatically
sounding the alarm.

LEGISLATURE'S
ORGANIZATION
BEING HELD UP
(Continued from page 1)
President Harry L. Corbett, held a
conference on the advisability oi
such a procedure during the noon
hour and concluded there would be
no legal objection. The two houses
therefore convened informally and
unofficially at 2 o'clock to listen to
the governor.
With Rep. Howard Latourette as
sured of the speakership of the
house by reason of a hectic caucus
last night, and Senator Harry Cor
bett holding over from the 1635 reg
ular session as president of the sen
ate, the Oregon legislature con
vened here In special session this
morning at tne call of Governor
Charles H. Martin to consider emer
gency legislation relative to the re
construction of the burned capltol,
Both houses recessed Just prior
to noon without either having ac
complished anything toward perma
nent organization both awaiting
reports of committees on credentials
concerning contested seats.
In the senate a committee com
posed of Senators Chinnock, Hazietl
Lee, Duncan and Ooss were exam-
inging the credentials of Nate
Boody, named by the Multnomah
county commissioners to succeed
Senator Ashby Dickson, who wa.i
disqualified through an opinion of
the attorney general, and consider
ing the protest of Senator Dickson
who contends that he is qualified.
A house committee of Represen
tatives Ross, Fuhrer and Leech was
delving into the question of seating
Robert S. Farrell, Jr., of Portland.
appointed to succeed Rep. Lew Wal
lace, whom the attorney general
ruled had forfeited his seat by ac
cepting appointment to the stat
game commission. Both Wallace and
Farrelll were seated and voted in
the caucus last night.
With Ralph E. Moody, deputy,
representing the attorney genenil
in support of tf disqualifying opin
ion, and Senator Dickson present
ing his own case, the senate cre
dentials committee got at its job
first and the house committee was
compelled to mark time while wait
ing for Moody to appear before It.
The senate committee, which at
noon was listening to Dickson's ar
gument that he had not disqualified
himself, did not expect to report
back until late In the afternoon
and the report was expected to be
followed by a lengthy fight on the
floor.
House organization was postpon
ed until late In the day in order to
allow for a Joint session with the
senate to hear Governor Martin's
message.
Except lor the Jobs of reading
clerk and doorkeeper the senate

which will consist of nine members,
President Corbett announced.
In the house Speaker-elect La-
tourette announced trmt ' ic com
mittees of the regular session would
remain unchanged with few ex
ceptions, and that the committee on
public Institutions will be enlarged
and will handle all capltol matters.
The tentative program calls for
point meetings and hearings by the
two capltol committees, but they
will ballot and vote separately.
Following the anticipated . floor
battle over the report of the cre
dentials committee, which Is expec
ted to be adverse to the claims of
Wallace and Rep. Glenn O. Taylor,
Jackson county, the house must go
through the process of organization
as determined by last night's cau
cus.
Taylor's eligibility is questioned
on the grounds that he is a federal
employe in his capacity as assistant
clerk of the federal court at Med-
ford.

after the balloting on the contest
had been held and the result was
announced. They said they had
been delayed by an arrest for speed
ing en route to Salem rrom Astoria,
but did not arrive in tho caucus
room until more than an hour aft
er the announced hour of conven
ing. House republicans, led by Rep.
William Knight, opened the fight
to deny Rep. Wallace his seat in last
night's caucus.
A motion by Rep. Walter Fuhrer,
R Marion, to allow only those rep
resentatives who received official
notices of the session from Secre
tary of state Snell to vote, was de
feated 28 to 27 as the house con
tinued its close balloting.
It took three votes before the
house agreed to adopt the unit rule
in approving Latourette's election
as speaker.
The first ballot was 31 to 29
against the plan, but the count was
protested because only 59 votes were
possible with two men absent and
Wallace and Farrell both voting.
Rep. Angell's motion to table the
question was defeated. On the next
vote the county was 31-28 for the
unit rule, with one ballot blank.
Illegal because 60 votes were cast,
the tally was accepted, however, on
another motion by Angell.
